To determine if 4505 is a prime number or a composite number, we simply look at the factors for 4505.
If the factors of 4505 are only 4505 and 1, then we know that 4505 is a prime number. Otherwise, 4505 is a composite number.
To explain better, if 4505 is only divisible by 1 and 4505, then it is a prime number, and if 4505 is divisible by more than 4505 and 1, then it is a composite number.
The factors of 4505 are as follows:
1, 5, 17, 53, 85, 265, 901, 4505
Therefore, since 4505 is divisible by more than one and itself, the answer to the
question "Is 4505 prime or composite?" is highlighted in blue below.
